Abstract: Devices and methods for the prognosis of intradialytic parameters such as a blood pressure are described, wherein at least one learning algorithm and/or at least one neural network is/are provided. A memory device stores patient-individual intradialytic parameters, laboratory parameters, and/or machine parameters, which can be used in the prognosis of patient-specific parameter progress during a dialysis treatment.

Abstract: A patient data monitoring system is disclosed for central monitoring of vital parameters of at least one dialysis patient in a therapy-free interval. The system includes a central patient database for storing patient data, at least one measuring device carried along or kept at home by a patient during the therapy-free interval, and a portable data processing and communication device carried along or kept at home by the patient in the therapy-free interval that assigns a corresponding patient ID to each measured vital parameter received from the at least one measuring device via data communication, automatically sets up a remote data connection to the central patient database and, once the connection to the central patient database is set up, automatically transmits a data set including patient ID and the at least one measured vital parameter to the central patient database.
